Work Highlights
Chambers recognizes Mary McNamara as "a fantastic advocate, who is incredibly persuasive…. She is one of the best oral advocates I have ever met." Mary is retained by Fortune 500 companies in sensitive white-collar matters, including securities fraud, antitrust and False Claims Act matters, as well as investigations and enforcement proceedings. She is a go-to lawyer for complex civil litigation, from securities class action defense and IP matters to general commercial disputes. Mary's track record of defending individuals and corporations in matters involving elevated legal complexity is second to none. A past president of the Bar Association of San Francisco, Mary is recognized as a leader in the bar, advancing the causes of reproductive rights, judicial independence and civility. She has received citations from bar and community organizations for her pro bono representation of a woman charged with murder in the death of her stillborn baby, a case that prompted international condemnation and led to reform of California law.
